I guess you are using OOo downloaded for www.openoffice.org and not from your distro's repositories. This version uses Java Media Framework see http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Java/Java_Media_Framework Latest OOo source comes with a Gstreamer plugin; but AFAIK this is not included in OOo 3.3 vid. http://www.openoffice.org/dev_docs/features/3.3/index.html According to http://development.openoffice.org/releases/DEV300m95_snapshot.html the current Developer Snapshot should include it Regards -- Ariel Constenla-Haile La Plata, Argentina
